Explanation:

To find the equivalent cost of gasoline in U.S. dollars per gallon, you can use the given exchange rate and the conversion factor for liters to gallons. Here's how you can calculate it:

1. Convert the cost of gasoline in euros to U.S. dollars using the exchange rate:

1.22 euros * (1 U.S. dollar / 0.896 euros) = 1.36 U.S. dollars per liter

2. Convert the cost from dollars per liter to dollars per gallon using the conversion factor:

1.36 dollars per liter * (1 gallon / 3.785 liters) = 0.36 dollars per gallon

So, the equivalent cost of gasoline in Berlin in U.S. dollars per gallon in September 2016 was approximately $0.36 per gallon.
